Mill Gill Force

Mill Gill Force is a impressive waterfall located just outside the village of Askrigg in Wensleydale, within the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

It can be reached in under a mile from Askrigg via a well-defined, signposted path, making it a high-reward destination for relatively little effort — and a popular one with both visitors and locals alike.

The falls are tucked within a wooded dell, where the stream tumbles over a substantial drop that becomes particularly dramatic after heavy rainfall.

Often described as one of the finest waterfalls in Wensleydale, Mill Gill Force is frequently combined with a longer walk continuing uphill to the more secluded Whitfield Gill Force, offering a satisfying ramble through classic Dales scenery.
